For its part, <strong>Foundry IQ<\/strong> (also available in pre-release) represents the next generation of <strong>RAG<\/strong> (retrieval augmented generation): it is a knowledge system capable of feeding agents with consolidated information from a multitude of data sources (Azure services, SharePoint, Fabric, web&#8230;). Foundry IQ automates multi-source search and synthesis to provide agents with rich context, while respecting data security and governance. In short, the alliance of Work IQ, Fabric IQ and Foundry IQ will provide AI agents with a comprehensive understanding of what the user is doing, what enterprise data means, and how to access it to <strong>make smarter decisions<\/strong>.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9b16726 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"9b16726\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;hosted&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-hosted-video elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<video class=\"elementor-video\" src=\"https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/From-unified-data-to-unified-intelligence-Introducing-IQ-in-Micr.mp4\" controls=\"\" preload=\"metadata\" controlsList=\"nodownload\" poster=\"https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/FabricIQFoundryIQ.png\"><\/video>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-06296b0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"06296b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11407\" src=\"https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Microsoft_Office_Teams_2025present.svg_-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"31\" height=\"31\">  What&#8217;s new in Microsoft Teams<\/h4><p>Microsoft Teams is evolving into <strong>an AI-driven work platform<\/strong>. One of the flagship announcements is <strong>Teams Mode for Microsoft 365 Copilot<\/strong>, which turns an individual Copilot chat into a group collaboration session in Teams. In practice, you can invite colleagues into your Copilot conversation to <g id=\"gid_2\">brainstorm and co-write with AI<\/g>, while retaining control over what is and isn&#8217;t shared from your initial prompts. This feature, in public pre-release, enables a team to work together with Copilot to develop ideas, plans or documents, reinforcing the <strong>collaborative dimension<\/strong> of AI. If you&#8217;d like to familiarize yourself with this new feature, a guided step-by-step demonstration is available via the button below.    <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-45fd06c elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"45fd06c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/regale.cloud\/microsoft\/play\/5280\/teams-mode-in-copilot\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"display:inline-block; padding:12px 20px; background:#0078d4; color:#fff; font-size:18px; font-weight:bold; border-radius:6px; text-decoration:none;\">\n  \ud83d\ude80 Teams Mode demo\n<\/a>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-994c0ed elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"994c0ed\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>What&#8217;s more, the Copilot experience in Teams is now <strong>unified across chats, channels and meetings<\/strong>. For users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license, this means that AI can analyze conversation history and meeting transcripts to automatically generate <strong>intelligent summaries<\/strong>, extract decisions made and highlight important action items. No more information delays: Copilot helps you to catch up with the thread of exchanges much more quickly by synthesizing the essentials.  <\/p><p>Teams also welcomes <strong>new<\/strong> autonomous <strong>agents<\/strong> designed to improve group productivity.  <\/p><ul><li><strong>The Channel Agent<\/strong>, now in public pre-release, acts as a virtual expert within a Teams channel: it can summarize the progress of a project via status reports and even automatically generate a Workback <strong>Plan<\/strong> listing the tasks to be carried out with their deadlines, so that nothing is forgotten in the management of a project.<\/li><li><strong>The Facilitator agent<\/strong> in meetings helps structure the session by detecting the agenda, tracking the progress of points discussed and drafting minutes in real time. This intelligent facilitator, now generally available, eases the burden on organizers by ensuring that meetings run smoothly and that actions are followed up.   <\/li><\/ul><p>Finally, Teams introduces enhancements for broader, more secure collaboration. It is now possible to <g id=\"gid_0\">chat on Teams with external users via their e-mail address<\/g>, even if they don&#8217;t have Teams on their side. These B2B or B2C conversations are protected by new <g id=\"gid_1\">trust indicators<\/g> that clearly identify external participants (&#8220;verified e-mail&#8221;), reinforcing vigilance and security when exchanging with guests. The 3D <g id=\"gid_2\">immersive event<\/g> experience in Teams has been upgraded to general availability, enabling avatar participants to meet in personalized virtual environments (now compatible with Meta Quest headsets). The Teams application is also enhanced with practical features such as multiple window opening (for chat, calendar, etc., improving multitasking) and <strong>customizable meeting report templates<\/strong> to adapt auto-generated notes to your audience (for example, to create an executive summary).    <\/p><p><strong>On the Teams Rooms side<\/strong>, Microsoft is preparing for the future by aligning these devices with Windows 11. It has been confirmed that support for <strong>Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows 10 ends in October 2025<\/strong>, which means that room systems must migrate to Windows 11 to continue receiving security and feature updates. Organizations are encouraged to check the compatibility of their current equipment with Windows 11 and plan to replace models that are too old. This transition will guarantee meeting rooms that are <strong>more efficient, secure and fully compatible<\/strong> with future Teams innovations.   <\/p><p>Also of note: Microsoft recently announced new end-of-support dates for Teams Rooms running Android. Android 12 devices will be supported until 2025-09-30, Android 13 devices until 2026-09-30, Android 14 devices until 2027-09-30, and Android 15 devices until 2028-09-30. It is therefore recommended that organizations plan their fleet upgrades now, to ensure the security and continued compatibility of their Teams meeting rooms.  <\/p><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11406\" src=\"https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Azure-Logo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"28\" height=\"26\" srcset=\"https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Azure-Logo.png 400w, https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Azure-Logo-300x284.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 28px) 100vw, 28px\" \/>  Azure Local: the hybrid cloud<\/h4><p>When it comes to hybrid cloud infrastructure, Azure Local was highlighted during Ignite. Azure Local is the solution that enables Azure services to be deployed in distributed locations (at the customer site, at the edge, in local data centers), all managed in a unified way via Azure Arc. In other words, Azure Local brings the power of the Azure cloud to the customer, offering the flexibility to run cloud applications and workloads on their own infrastructure, while retaining centralized visibility and control from the Azure portal. This approach meets sovereignty and compliance needs: for example, a hospital can process sensitive patient data locally with Azure governance, or a government agency keep its critical workloads in a controlled environment while benefiting from cloud tools.     <\/p><p>Azure Local, previewed last year, is now coming of age with notable new capabilities. Microsoft has announced support for large-scale deployments: Azure Local can now scale up to 100+ nodes across multiple racks, enabling over 10,000 compute cores on a single cluster in pre-release. In addition, the Microsoft 365 Local service is launched in general availability to run on Azure Local. It becomes possible to host local instances of Exchange, SharePoint or Skype Enterprise on its Azure Local infrastructure &#8211; a key solution for organizations requiring 100% private cloud productivity tools. Azure Local also offers greater storage flexibility, with pre-release integration of external SAN arrays from leading suppliers (Pure Storage, NetApp, Dell, etc.) to reuse existing infrastructures and ensure high performance. In addition, the Azure Migrate tool for Azure Local is now available: it enables VMware virtual machines to be easily migrated to Azure Local in an agentless way, simplifying the modernization of legacy fleets to this new model.       <\/p><p>These enhancements position Azure Local as a <strong>robust foundation for hybrid and sovereign clouds<\/strong>. Businesses can choose from a vast catalog of validated hardware and deploy Azure Local in connected or disconnected environments, from the central datacenter to remote sites, while benefiting from the consistency of the Azure model for operations. In short, with Azure Local now in general availability, Microsoft offers organizations a solution for <strong>combining the best of cloud and local<\/strong>: the agility and scale of the public cloud, combined with control over on-premises data and infrastructure.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f34eef elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4f34eef\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11408\" src=\"https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Contact-Cente-Logo-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" srcset=\"https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Contact-Cente-Logo-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Contact-Cente-Logo-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Contact-Cente-Logo-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Contact-Cente-Logo-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Contact-Cente-Logo-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/johndeletre.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Contact-Cente-Logo.png 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 30px) 100vw, 30px\" \/>Agents in Dynamics 365 Contact Center<\/h4><p>At Ignite 2025, attention was also focused on the customer experience with <strong>Dynamics 365 Customer Service \/ Contact Center<\/strong>. Microsoft had introduced <strong>10 new autonomous agents<\/strong> to Dynamics 365 last year, and these generative AI-based agents are now at the heart of the <strong>Dynamics 365 Contact Center<\/strong>. Designed to assist advisors and deliver faster, more personalized customer interactions, they can handle multiple conversations simultaneously, switch between sessions without loss of context, and automate certain support tasks. Integrated directly into the Dynamics 365 agent interface, these assistants boost operational efficiency by handling routine requests or offering relevant advice in real time from the company&#8217;s knowledge base.   <\/p><p>At one demonstration, a striking example was the <strong>TimeSheet Agent<\/strong>. This intelligent agent illustrates how automation can simplify timesheet management: it cross-references meetings and projects to propose pre-filled entries. Of course, the user retains ultimate control, since the agent does not submit the timesheet, but it makes the job much easier by preparing the data in advance. This approach is a concrete example of how digital assistance can transform an often tedious task into a smooth and efficient process.   <\/p><p>From now on, a <strong>virtual agent<\/strong> can greet a customer on chat, understand their question thanks to AI, answer it or collect preliminary information, then pass the case on to a human operator with a full contextual summary. Other agents help the operator during the call, by suggesting the next best action or searching for solutions in internal documentation. This generation of intelligent agents, coupled with the power of <g id=\"gid_1\">Copilot<\/g> within Dynamics 365, <g id=\"gid_2\">reinvents customer service processes<\/g>: employees are augmented by AI to deliver smoother, more proactive experiences across all channels (voice, chat, email&#8230;), while reducing resolution time and repetitive effort. A demonstration at Ignite showed how these autonomous agents, working hand-in-hand with advisors, improve customer satisfaction while saving precious time for support teams.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4e4e0ac elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4e4e0ac\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>\ud83c\udfafConclusion<\/h4><p>In conclusion, Microsoft Ignite 2025 illustrated Microsoft&#8217;s determination to enter squarely into the<strong>era of &#8220;Frontier Firms<\/strong> &#8221; &#8211; those pioneering companies where humans collaborate closely with <strong>intelligent agents<\/strong>.
